Women Football: Morocco beats The Gambia

Morocco’s
women national team has defeated Gambia’s Queen Scorpions 2-1 in a friendly
match played in Rabat.

The
international friendly was part of the Queen Scorpions’ preparation ahead of
Burkina Faso clash.

The
Gambia female national team left Banjul for Rabat on Sunday transiting via
Senegal but was a 2-1 loser to the home side. Coach Boom Sowe and her technical
staff will now have to improve on the Rabat defeat to prepare well for Burkina
Faso.

Meanwhile,
the Queen Scorpions will travel to Ouagadougou- Burkina Faso today where they
will face their fellow West Africans Burkina national female team in the first
leg of the crucial 2019 African women cup of nations qualifier in Ghana. They
will battle for a win away to Burkina Faso this Saturday.

The
team captain Penda Bah alias Crouch said the girls are fully prepared for the
game and are working hard and making some fun around while waiting for the
game.

In
a telephone conversation with the reporter, Miss Bah said with their parents’
prayers and those of the entire Gambian population both home and abroad, they
would surely make it.
